"Yes, I've met him multiple times and trained with him—alongside my dad as well. He's given me a few tips, watched me bat, and I've had the chance to see him bat up close," Anaya told Filmygyan.
"I once asked him how he handles pressure at the highest level. He told me that he practices to a point where he fully understands his strengths and trusts them. He knows exactly what he can do on the field, and he simply believes in that," she said.
